A Companion to the Neronian Age is an up-to-date, interdisciplinary and comprehensive collection of essays on the literature, history, archaeology and the reception of this period. Offering a careful balance of scholarly overview and new research, this collection presents an in-depth focus on individual works of art and text, but also ranges across broader aspects of Neronian rule--home affairs and international relations; the imperial image from cameo to colossus--as well as fresh perspectives, with chapters on religion, philosophy and reception. Making important research available in English for the first time, the Companion will serve as an authoritative overview and helpful resource for all levels of students and scholars.
